Looks like something inspired by The Fast & The Furious, except those
look really cheap. I wouldn't be seen dead with one.

Whatever floats your boat though...

They are incredibly flashy, aren't they? Stupidly flashy too!

I'd like to find a way to cycle by candlelight!

Ask Carl Fogel over at rec.bicycles.tech and I'm sure he'll find a way
for you to do that alright!

Red in rear, yellow in front. No blinking, put battery case in seat
bag, wrap wire around frame tubes. 30 hours on 3 AA Duracell.

=v= No experience with that, but some friends have these:

http://rockthebike.com/lights/downlowglow

They look snazzy (in a certain urban aesthtic sense) and are
certainly visible.

I wouldn't be seen dead with one.

=v= Given that these call themselves "bike halos," might we
infer that you might instead be seen dead with some manner
of bike horns and pitchfork? ;^)

Yes, anything would be preferable to those fairy-lights! :-)

At the risk of stating the obvious, I think anyone looking for good
bike lights ought to go to a store with a good selection and comparison
shop. I'm all for checking the LBS first. (Don't bother with 'mart
stores; all they have is junk.)
And then if you have one near you, check out REI. Often they have
the best selection, and the one where I shop even has all their
taillights mounted side by side on a piece of pipe so that you can turn
them on and compare them that way.
In case you haven't already looked at light prices, be prepared for a
shock. I've seen bike light "systems" selling for upwards of $300,
although there are less expensive alternatives.

I like DiNotte http://www.dinottelighting.com/ .

I just bought another 200 lumen Li-ion headlight for my new bike. DiNotte
has excellent customer care, if you buy directly from their online store.

I may one day buy their 800 lumen headlight. You could probably see that
thing from space.
